The No-wall Dead Corolla (End of the Road)


Recommended Posts

As the title says, I'm walling my 1992 Toyota Corolla. Wanted to start a new thread. Plans are 4 RE SE 15's in a 10~cf sealed box. Getting the SE motors from Blue, and buying the Re-cones from Fi. Anyway, the box build wont commence until my shocks are shipped, so I'll update this thread when I purchase/receive items, or start running wire and whatnot.

Anyway, here's a list of the equipment.

4 RE SE 15's (old model)
1 DC Audio 2.0 amplifier
1 Pair of DLS X-program 5.25 components (Front stage)
1 Mb Quart Onyx 125.4
Kenwood KDC-MP345U Headunit
2+ runs of 1/0
1 D1200 up front
1 XP3000 in the trunk
Mechman 220 amp Alternator
10~CF Sealed Box
Custom Fiberglass Kicks/A pillars
Alpha Damp/Audiotechnix deadener.

The start of the actual box is on hold until I receive my rear shocks in the mail. My current ones are blown to hell and back, so not too much weight until I get everything back there fixed.

If anyone is wondering why I'm doing sealed, it's for a number of reasons. For starters, my plan of 2 18 inch Fi SSD's was going to be a VERY tight squeeze, so it was agreed that it'd be easier to build a box for 4 15's sealed. Also, my listening preferences range from Rap all the way to hardcore/death metal or The Eagles (huge Eagles fan here), so it made sense to go with a sealed box to suit my listening.

Once I receive my fuses in the mail, I'll start redoing my big 3 and doing my runs of 1/0. Remember, I'm also a student, so I'll only have Tuesdays, Thursdays and a few weekends to work on this. It may take a bit of time.

On to a few pictures. I'll update as I go.

I'm not the best at taking pictures while I work. Sorry. I'll try my best once I start the box. So far I've got my A pillars done (which I will be re glassing), and I'm planning on re-doing my kicks. I've also deadened the roof with 1 layer of the Alpha damp. Stay Tuned.

totally tuned in for this. i haven't seen a walled crayola yet

Hell yeah. It's one hell of a car to do teh audioz in, I'll tell you that.

Well fuck, man, tell your shocks to hurry up. Did you find springs, too? Or just doing shocks for now? Let me know if you need help during the build.

Yeah, found the springs, but couldn't find any that provided lift. If I need to, I'll just buy some spacers to help out. And for sure, I'll let you know. Blue offered his box building prowess, so I might have to take a trip out to SJ within the next few weeks, lol.

Dang man you must be excited to get started on this, huh? Can't wait till you start postin more pics of your build man. :clapping:

Well, that, and I HATE starting a thread and posting a shit ton of pictures all at once. If I start it now, I can post every now and then vs uploading 50+ pictures and then typing and posting them all.

Ok, so I got some more stuff in the mail today. Got my REAR shocks in right? Sweet!

Or not.

Needless to say, Andy's auto sport fucked up my order. It already took them 3 weeks to ship my shocks with no shipping notification, E-receipt OR receipt in the shipped boxes, but on top of all that, they shipped me the wrong shocks. I called and explained that I got the wrong shocks, so now I have to wait AGAIN for them to reply. I'll be very pissed if I have to pay shipping to send these back because THEY fucked up. Who knows how long it'll take them to ship the right shocks now.
